Default Chevy Silverado

Hey guys, gotta question!!!

I am thinking about buying a 2002 Chevy Silverado 1500, If I get it I want to put 33x12.5's on just like the Blazer, but I was wondering how much lift I would need to do to fit them, and if it needed to be suspension or body, I would assume suspension.

Help me out guys!!!! Thanks

Oh, and I am actually looking at 2, a 2002 Silverado with 110,000 on a 5.3 for $10,975 and a 1995 Silverado with a new(er) trans, motor, and rear end with 48,000 miles on them for $4000, we just have to see what one works out better!

Probably best off on a chevy silverado/ gmc Sierra forum, but 285/75r16s would be about 33 and should fit stock fine only time I could see them rubbing would be when bottoming out so a 2 inch leveling kit would probably help. I think those have t bars up front and leafs out back so lifting/leveling should be similar

Yeah it's GM so you can crank the torsion bars just like blazers.
